APBIO5._____________________.FR23 2014 December 3‚ Respond to the following. 1. Distinguish genetic drift from gene flow in terms of how they occur and their implications for future genetic variation in a population. Genetic drift‚ defined as the process in which chance events cause unpredictable fluctuations in allele frequencies from one generation to the next‚ can increase or decrease variability within particularly small populations. Certain genotype/phenotype frequencies‚ for example‚ may

Name Period Chapter 7: Membrane Structure and Function Concept 7.1 Cellular membranes are fluid mosaics of lipids and proteins 1. The large molecules of all living things fall into just four main classes. Name them. Explain what is meant when we say a molecule is amphipathic. 3. In the 1960s‚ the Davson-Danielli model of membrane structure was widely accepted. Describe this model and then cite two lines of evidence that were inconsistent with it. 4
